Bollocks to Christmas cake - return to Lola's Bakery

While most of us Sluts are more than partial to a nice hunk of proper six-week-brandy-soaked Christmas cake, we've heard that there are a few people out there that are a little less keen. Naturally, we've come across a wholly acceptable and no less festive alternative in the Christmas cupcakes turned out by Lola's Kitchen in London town.


They have created a few special cupcakes for hungry mouths to feast on. There's a special spicy gingerbread sponge (with frosting covered in cute little gingerbread men!) The Snowflake cakes are sprinkled with crushed candy canes. The insanely colourful Ho Ho Ho cakes, replete in edible glitter, are a rather satisfying way to overdose on sugar. Not sure I could do it too often - but then again - the same could surely be said of everything at this time of year ;)

If you've got a Christmas-cake-shy friend or relative to provide for in this next week or so, hot foot it down to Selfridge's Food Hall to pick up a couple.
